Hey all, after relaxing in the daintree for a few days we felt we had to pick up the pase again. So afer a day of laying around in the lagoon we went back to the rainforest to do a Bungie jump at the AJ hackett platform. It was heeps fun, after checking to see if i could do it (as i've had trouble with my knees) i was good to go and weighed in. We started walking up with al following behind. So when we got to the top by default i was the first to go. The crew put the bungie around my waist (knees thing again) and after alot of huffing a puffing and a count from 5 to 1 i was off and falling towards the earth. It an amazing experiance, and there is a great felling of weightlessness when your pulled back up. Your then left haging there while you wait for the block to come and un hook you. Al went next ( after 2 counts) the went a paid for another one which he found out that he had to do backwards as he had gone forwards already (tower rules). We both got a DVD so i'll show you all when we get home. Chilled for a couple of days in cairns and sorted thing out. Kylie being one of them. She had no rego and had started making a load of new noise's, so we new that we could'nt sell her so we had to scrap her. We got $100 bucks for her with went towards the hire of the car to take us back to brissy. However it was a sad day as we had to say good bye to our home, transport, and companion in 1 foul swoop. We had met a girl in cape trib that need to go back to brissy ( Caroline ) so we all rented a car betwen us and headed back down to brissy. We stopped in an old favorate location on the the way, Rainbow beach. Why i hear you cry. Well 1 caroline wanted to stop tere as she had some buisness to do there and 2nd was that we booked to do a skydive there. Yes a skydive!!!! We got into rainbow after 2 long days of driving, Caroline got us a floor to sleep on as we got there late on thursday night. We then stayed untill sunday, doing the dive on sat. We got picked up from pippies where we stayed before. The blokes picked us up and we where straight to the airstrip. They put us in the harness's and told us how to sit so they could get us out of the plane, then we where taking off, rising to 14.000 feet. The plane it's self was that shakey it was enought to make you want to jump out. It took us about 25 mins t get to 14.000 feet. This time al was first. It was strange as it was only when the door opened that you really started to think about it. Bang al was gone so quick and i was next. Sitting on the edge of the plane looking out, i relised that it was much more worried about the bungie jump. Then before you know your heads back and your out the plane, instantly falling at the fastest speed you can fall at. It's an awsome feeling that can't really be explaned so i'm not going to try just belive me it's unreal. The whole free fall lasts about 65 seconds ( feels like about 10 ) in that time you cover 10.000 feet, then the shoot opens and it take's about another 5 mins to get to the landing zone on the beach. IT WAS AMAZING and again we have the DVD so i'll show you all when we get home, altought it is a little X rated. The following day we headed back to brissy. Walked straight back into our old jobs at the hotel and are now working again trying to get back some of the money we spent. I've moved in with Jenelf and alan is camping with the couple that we meet in nossa, so we all happy at the moment. Woodfordis coming up. Al got a sparkys position there, so where going to work untill a week or so before the have a good amount of cash to have a good time there then maybe head to the red centre after before coming home, to get there before Jen dose. So your all going to see me again soon (around 3 mouths) gonna catch you all by serprise randomly after i return so the the dates a little secret just be ready as i'm coming to a city near you soon over and out soon C
